Jerry Jeff Walker - I Feel Like Hank Williams Tonight Chords

I Feel Like Hank Williams Tonight
Written by Chris Wall

I usually capo this on 2
         
   C          G
I could live my whole life
 Am          Em
With out a phone call
     F             C        G
The likes of which I got today
       C        G
It was only my wife 
      Am            Em
Said hello then goodbye 
     F            G       C
And told me she's goin' away.
C         G
I didn't cry
       Am          Em
It was all cut and dry
   F             C     G
I hung up before I realized
   C             G
I turned up my stereo
   Am            Em
I walked to the window
      F             G              C
And stared at the storm clouds outside
                  G             Am      Em
I play classical music when it rains
         F          C        G
I play country when I am in pain
   F             C               Em              Am   G F
I won't play Beethoven, cuz the mood's just not right
    C              G         C
I feel like Hank Williams tonight.


There's no explanation
Not even a reason
No talk of the good times we had
Was it Me was it her
I don't know for sure
That's why I'm feeling so bad

Hey I play jazz when I am confused
I play country whenever I lose
Bird's saxophone
Just don't seem right
I fell like Hank Williams tonight

Lately I've been thinkin'
I just might quit drinkin'
Now I don't know all in all
I just might stay home 
And get drunk all alone
And punch a few holes in the wall

'Cause when I'm real high I play rock and roll
I play country when I'm losin' control
I don't play Chuck Berry
Quite as much as I'd like
I feel like Hank Williams tonight

I feel like Hank Williams tonight.
